Default Cab12 Radiator brace bar? Measurement overall?

Does anyone have an original brace bar that goes behind the radiator on a Cab12? I am looking for the overall length of the brace in order to check the distance from one cast rad support to the other, on my cab 11. I am under the impression that the distance between the two castings is too big on my C8 and that some bending or shims are needed.....however the problem is I have no measurements to work from, as the U-shaped rad surround is heavily corroded and probably bent as well.

I would also be interested if anyone has a drawing of the brace itself, as I am thinking of making a repro for my truck to get some more stiffness in the front part of the cab.
